27 When an ox or a lamb or a goat is born, it shall remain with its mother for seven days; only from the eighth day onward will it be acceptable, to be offered as an oblation to the LORD. 28 You shall not slaughter an ox or a sheep on one and the same day with its young. 29 Whenever you offer a thanksgiving sacrifice to the LORD, so offer it that it may be acceptable on your behalf; 30 it must be eaten on the same day; none of it shall be left over until morning. I am the LORD. 31 Be careful to observe my commandments. I am the LORD. 32 Do not profane my holy name, that in the midst of the Israelites I may be hallowed. I, the LORD, make you holy, 33 who led you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD. Leviticus 22:27-33, New American Bible Revised. Copyright © 2010 USCCB.
